This is incredibly dazzling and an eye catcher. I could not believe how great it worked for the first few months. There is a big downside- it does not hold up in strong wind gusts. I constantly had to take it down from the tree I hung it from and snap back in the fins which would come undone when the wind got strong. If you can find a place that is shielded from the wind then you can put it outdoors. It requires very little wind to work. Or, do as I did and just hang it outdoors in the Summer and take it down in the Fall and Winter when the winds become strong. It's nice enough to just hang it indoors as a display piece. Note: It weighs almost nothing.
